" There was that little thing called the Great Schism..."

Ah yes; the great unpleasantness! Well, we seem to all be working through that one. You guys are coming around quite nicely! :)

To: Kolokotronis
Hi Kolokronis,

First off, I'll admit, I do not know as much about the great schism as I should, but I know the basics. I am Roman Catholic, and greatly admire the Orthodox churches. I really want us to unite, and be one church again.

The Roman Church can be reconciled under obedience to the primacy, but, the thing I am not sure of, is if all of the Orthodox churches, and their patriarchs would be willing to be one church again, if all of our disagreements were reconciled.

Would the patriarchs, and the people, want to be reunited, or is it only a small group of people, including such as yourself?
